I really enjoy using our trendy photopolymer sets. This card is another card I made with the Bombs Away Photopolymer set (133411) which we also made during our Diva Day last weekend!

The base of the card is Summer Starfruit card stock (126839) which is a 2012-2014 In Color and one of my favorite shades of yellow! The designer series paper is from our new catalog debuting on Friday and called Soho Subway Designer Series Paper (130140) and has a nice grungy look which I LOVE!!! It has a piece of Epic Day This and That Designer Washi Tape (131269) along the side...just lovin' this Washi Tape!!!

I stamped the bomb from the Bombs Away Birthday set (133411) in Early Espresso Classic Ink (126974) and punched out the top half of the bomb using the 1 3/4" Circle Punch (119850). I then stamped the bomb again in Early Espresso ink and punched out the circle part of the bomb using the 1" Circle Punch (119868) and used Stampin' Dimensionals (104430) to pop it up over the half of the other stamped bomb image. Just gives the card and image a little different look.

The greeting is stamped with Island Indigo Classic Ink (126986) onto the Very Vanilla card stock (101650) banner. Underneath the banner is a piece of Natural 7/16" Trim Ribbon (129287) which I tugged at the end just a little to give it the frayed look...LOVE it!!!

I'd love for you to stop over to my online store by clicking HERE and order any of the items to make this card! You won't be disappointed!

Love the look and simplicity of this card! It uses some of my favorite colors and makes me happy :)

It's a short week, so I hope you have a great Tuesday to start it off!

I found a similar idea to this card on Pinterest and remade it using ALL Stampin' Up! product and I am SUPER happy with the way it turned out! The one on Pinterest was not a gift card holder but I changed this one to hold a gift card. Lauren would LOVE it especially since it has a Justice gift card on it!!! (Actually it is her card...but don't tell her! LOL!)

(Sorry the following pictures are yellowish...I just can't seem to get a light card like this to take a good picture!)

I am SUPER sad one of my favorite dies is on the Retired Accessories List! Yes, the Scalloped Envelope Die (113462) is retiring but I am keeping mine! I've love the things I've made with it and I just can't part with it! You'll see a close up of it below but the chevron designer series paper on this card is actually the Scallop Envelope Die standing up the tall way for the gift card to fit in.

I LOVE using our This and That items for more things than just our Memory Journal Kit. Although I do love that too! So the Washi Tape is from the Epic Day This and That Washi Tape (131269) and the Scallop Envelope Die (113462) is cut out using the This and That Epic Day Designer Series Paper (130814). The "8" is a sticker from the Epic Day This and That Designer Stickers (131271) and I layered it on to a piece of Crumb Cake card stock (120953) which was punched out using the Postage Stamp Punch (122344). The Tea Lace Doily (129399) is cut in half for a fun addition to the card.

I also took a Gumball Green Stampin' Write Marker (126856) and placed into our Color Spritzer Tool (107066) to get the splatters on the left side of the card. Now this is a tool you CAN"T live without and it is on the retired list so only available through June 3rd so you better click HERE to order it today! PLUS it is on sale for $9.71 which is a 25% savings! It really is the best tool and I won't be parting with mine either!!

The "Happy Birthday" greeting is from the Wishes Your Way stamp set (129156) which is currently in our Spring Catalog and only available through May 30th. The Rhinestone Basic Jewels (119246) are always a great addition to any card especially a girly card!

I really hope you like this card as much as I do. I think I may make a few to have on hand with other ages on them! You never know when your child will be invited to a birthday party!

I'd love to hear what you think so please leave a comment below! This way I know I am not talking to myself on here! LOL!

I hope you have a super Saturday! Thanks for stopping by!

I am really enjoying our Photopolymer stamp sets recently! I can't wait to share more samples with you! This card uses the Bombs Away Birthday Photopolymer Stamp (133411) which has lots of great funny sayings for birthdays! Here is the stamp set images for you...

The background paper is the Epic Day This and That Designer Series Paper
(130814) which is part of the This and That journal collection. I used
the Epic Day This and That Designer Washi Tape (141269) along the right
side of the designer series paper. You can use Washi Tape for so many
different things!

I stamped the bomb onto the designer series paper with Jet Black Stazon (101406) and added a little Whisper White Baker's Twine (124262) using a 2-way Glue Pen (100425) to try to make it look a little more real. I then stamped the bomb again on to Sahara Sand card stock (121043) and punched out the bomb image with the 1 1/4" Circle Punch (119861) and popped it up with Stampin Dimensionals (104430).

On the banner I used one of our black buttons from the Neutrals Designer Button Collection (119743) which will be gone on June 3rd so be sure to get it HERE while you can!

I hope you like me little share today! Don't forget to get your retiring items while you can! June 3rd is the last day to order these items. Click the links below to see the lists!

You read it write! I made a project today using our Stampin' Up! products but not a bit of stamping!! Let me share...

I made myself a journal using our "Try It" kit from our My Paper Pumpkin monthly subscription. You get two of these brown journals in the trial kit along with other items to decorate your journal really cute! I decided to take one of my journals and decorate it differently than what the kit provides. I needed a little creative mojo and this little journal helped. You can just purchase the Try It Paper Pumpkin kit separately at anytime HERE to see what it is all about with no subscription.

I am using this journal to write down all the great quotes about life I find or hear. I am just starting it and I thought using the This and That product line to help decorate the journal would be great. The stickers are washi tape along the binding is from the This and That product line.

So you'll see there really is NO stamping! Here is what the pages inside look like and some quotes I started to write down.

I also used a little sneak peek item on my journal...can you find it?

So did you find it?!?! Yes, it is that cute little Designer Very Vintage Button which will be available starting on May 31st when our new Annual Catalog goes live for you to order from. As a demonstrator we are able to purchase a few items from the new catalog a month early to try them out.

I hope you try out one of these products! They are two of my favorite and I just can't get enough of them. In case you missed it, here are the places you can purchase the above items from!

Don't forget you will earn Lakeshore Loyalty Rewards when you place an online order with me HERE and you will also receive a new Annual Catalog FREE in the mail to you as well! You won't want to miss getting a catalog...it's amazing!

Thanks for stopping by a little later today! I was computerless last night and my creative juices just weren't flowing last night but I think making this journal has helped!

So I am back at it with the Welcome Kit from My Paper Pumpkin monthly kit and the Epic Day This and That (133350) items. I had fun designing this cute yet simple card.

I started off knowing I wanted to use this tag die from the Apothecary Accents Framelit Collection (127003). I added the holes on the end with the 1/16" Handheld Circle Punch (101227). I added a little banner using Daffodil Delight card stock (119683) and layered the Extra-Large Oval Punch (119859) over the top after stamping the Paper Pumpkin Welcome Kit greeting using Gumball Green Classic Ink (126861). I then stamped the greeting again using Pool Party Classic Ink (126982) on to Very Vanilla Card Stock (101650) and just cut out the "Friend" and adhered it over the Gumball Green "friend".

I can't get enough of the Epic Day This and That Washi Tape (131269) so I knew this card needed a little tape, and I really think it turned out cute with the tape. I used a piece of my favorite print of the Epic Day This and That Designer Series Paper (130814) and layered behind a piece of Crumb Cake Card Stock (120953). The card base is Gumball Green Card Stock (126840), one I don't use enough but I really do like it!

The tag portion of the card is all sponged used Stamping Sponges (101610) and Crumb Cake Classic Ink (126975) while the Gumball Green base is sponged using Gumball Green Classic Ink (126861).

Don't wait....You have until the 10th of May to sign up for My Paper Pumpkin and get this great Welcome Kit in the mail. Who doesn't LOVE some Happy Mail in their mailbox instead of bills and junk mail! If you sign up with me HERE, you will automatically get a special thank you in the mail each month using that month's kit in a different way.

I've been wanting to use this die to make a decorative card base for a while and finally last week I did when I made this card for our Team Gathering.

This Card Base Pop 'n Cuts Die (130099) creates this beautiful edging on the card when you use it. I did use the Essentials Paper-Piercing Pack (126187) and Stampin' Pierce Mat (126199) to create the paper piercing holes along the edge. I ran the Epic Day This and That Designer Series Paper (130814) through the die seperately and then layered it on top and then paper pierced.

This fun little tag starts with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch (120906) in Basic Gray card stock (121044) and paper pierced also using the Essentials Paper-Piercing Pack. The chevron image from on the Decorative Label Punch (120907) is from the Oh, Hello stamp set (130733) and stamped in Calypso Coral ink (126983) on Calypso Coral card stock (122925).

The 7/16" Natural Trim Ribbon (129287) from the Spring Catalog is frayed at the ends and folded in half and placed behind the Decorative Label. I used a Stamping Sponge (101610) and Crumb Cake ink (126975) to color the piece of Canvas Creations (129375) and punched it out with the 1 1/4" Scallop Circle Punch (127811). The "wish big" greeting is from the Pennant Parade stamp set (122742) and stamped with Basic Gray ink (126981) on Basic Gray card stock (121044) and punched out with the 1" Circle Punch (119868). I added the Thought Bubble from the Hung Up Cute Clips (129389).

On the top right of the card, I stamped the chevron image from the Oh, Hello stamp set (130733) in our Illuminate Glimmer Watermark Pad (126857) to give it just a little something extra but not too much. This Illuminate ink works great on Whisper White card stock (100730).

Here is a video showing you a little more about the Card Base Pop 'n Cuts Die and the card itself...

Thanks for stopping by to learn more about this great die! I hope to use it on more cards that I create. It really is fun and I can see many more possibilities with it!

This was a fun card for me to create. I couldn't stop adding little layers on the tag portion of the card. I just can't get enough of Calypso Coral (122925) and Pool Party (122924) together and I am so glad they are sticking around and being added to our Subtles Color Family! The base of this card is Sahara Sand (121043), it's been a while since I've pulled Sahara Sand out and I really like the look of it with these colors! I'll have to use it more.

As you can see I really can't get enough of the Epic Day This and That items, Designer Series Paper (130814) or the Washi Tape (131269). Don't foget you only have until April 30th to order the Epic Day This and That Bundle (133350) and save 15% off! Do it HERE at my online store before the savings is gone!

I used the 2 1/2" Circle Punch (120906) to punch out the circle in Basic Gray Card Stock (121044) and then the Essentials Paper Piercing Pack (126187) to paper pierce the perfect circle around the circle edge. I also used our Stampin' Pierce Mat (126199) and Paper-Piercing Tool (126189) to get the pierced look around the circles edge. See the video below for details...

The Decorative Label Punch (120907) stamped using the oval/chevron image from the Oh, Hello stamp set (130733) on and in Calypso Coral ink (126983) and card stock (122925).

The "wish big" greeting is from the Pennants Parade stamp set (122742) and stamped in Basic Gray ink (126981) and punched out with the 1 1/4" Circle Punch (119861). Then layered with the Hung Up Cute Clips (129389) thought bubble.

I can't seem to get enough of the Epic Day This and That kit items! On this card I am using the Epic Day Designer Series Paper and the Epic Day Washi Tape.

I just love this layout too! I also used our new Designer Typeset Photopolymer Stamp Set (132956) for the think bubble. The "hello" is from the Pennant Parade stamp set (122742) which is stamped in Stazon Jet Black ink (101406) and the "Friend" is from the Family Reunion stamp set (122712) stamped in Calypso Coral Classic Ink (126983). The Family Reunion set has become a favorite of mine! The think bubble is layered on top of the 1 3/4" Circle Punch (119850).

I really hope you have or will soon have the Epic Day This and That bundle (133350) and save 15% if you order it no later than April 30th. Plus I will send you a little something made with this kit just for ordering through my online store HERE. Plus you will receive Lakeshore Loyalty Rewards!
